Dié plaatkoekieresep het ek jare gelede ontwikkel en dit bly ’n staatmaker. Ek het dit al soveel keer gemaak en dit bly ’n lekker bederf. Die karringmelk in die resep maak die plaatkoekies ekstra veerlig en ek sit glad nie suiker in die beslag nie, want die suurlemoenskil en vanielje gee dit ’n heerlike geur. Wat is jou gunsteling om op ’n plaatkoekie te eet?

The chocolate sauce is for days when you want to serve this as a dessert. Without the sauce, the crumpets are perfect for a Saturday morning breakfast, perhaps with a rasher of bacon, fresh fruit and a drizzle of honey.

Lemon and poppy seeds are a well-known combination, and these cupcakes add a zesty flair to any tea table or picnic basket. The fresh thyme gives a lovely botanical flavour to the cupcakes, making them a little more sophisticated. The ratio of lemon juice to icing sugar adds just enough acidity to the recipe to balance out the sweetness and rounds the cakes off beautifully.

These rusks are so easy to make and high in fibre. The buttermilk gives it a lovely texture, without the need for eggs – so the recipe is indeed correct and not missing eggs.
